comedy / teen
 (imdb rating: 8.6/10)
This is one of the best movies of the 2007
Plot: Two co-dependent high school seniors (Hill and Cera) are forced to deal with separation anxiety after their plan to stage a booze-soaked party goes awry.
I adored this movie, so funny, so much fun. High school revisited, with a great summer feel and groovy 70s soundtrack. Like American Pie but more down to earth (and with less silicone). Hill got the mouth but mostly I really like Cera and the way he plays it straight up uncomfortable. Classic and so true. It's interesting how the foul language works, a lot more than here cuz we are dealing with kids. Some of the stuff they say is so over the top though Good stuff on casting the chicks, sorta believable heat: Martha MacIsaac (Becca) and Emma Stone (Jules) Oh yeah the penis art was way outta control As it's been publicized, the movie comes from the Apatow laugh factory, it's based on a script that was started back in the teen years of Seth Rogen (Knocked Up) and Evan Goldberg, who named the two best buddies after themselves. The one plot many complain about is the cops but I guess the advanced warning/lowered expectations helped here, they were bearable Last Updated 1/19/2008 6:44:44 AM 1hr 54min / Directed by Greg Mottola / Starring Michael Cera, Jonah Hill, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Bill Hader, Seth Rogen / Language: English / Watched: DVD | ||||
